Thats just the type of opponent he needed tonight, tremendous result for the lad. He's got all the ability in the world and a few 8 rounders and onto the British title. The best prospect we've got IMO. Well done.
Gavin looked very good - he is making excellent progress and like you say that was a very good opponent for him at this stage
agree with gavin at the end concerning lenny daws. i think he's got the style to beat him soundly enough.
Frankie looks a real class act and tonight was no different. Looking forward to seeing him move up the rankings over the next few years.
He looked sharp, used his feet well and dominated against a very decent durable opponent. I'd like him to use his jab a bit more but thats being picky. He'll box the head off moxt at british level now but theres no need to rush him.
Im gunna do my favorite game immaginary matchmaker :good I would like Frankie to take on one out of Barry Morrison, Rob Hunt or Mihailu Mutu next all are decent opporators and another decent little step up or in the case of Morrison or Mutu big steps up.
Missed the fight was he really that good out of the three with degale and saunders is he the shining light?
Frankie Gavin is going to rule the roost...:yep He is going to develop into a fantastic professional...:good
With that badge on his shorts, I hope they stick him in with Pac for his next fight, the blue nosed **** :twisted:
At first i was impressed with him. Last two fights i seen the mistakes he made go away and he moves sweetly. He's got a long way to go but if he keeps improving and works on the skills that will pay his bills he can go on to win a version of world title. The lad's style is refreshing to see from a British boxer nowadays. As said you can see he's a sweet pea fan.
very crap opponent. all he did was come forward in straight lines and was easy target. gavin should stop that sort of opponent rather easily, and gavin did try. not that impressed. a lot better performance from degale, now he showed power and very good lateral movement. hopefully gavin will reach worldlclass level, but won't be too surprised if he doesn't.
I thought the opponent was fine. He came to try to win, threw plenty back and was simply dealt with easily. Better that than a punchbag that allows Gavin to do all the showboating he wants. I'd look at getting him 8 or 10 rounds next time out against a similar level opponent, rather than another 6 against a better guy. After that, stick him in with whoever is the English or British champ.
he was a human punching bag, he came in straight lines, he had a poor defense, and should of been stopped. i think at the moment you guys are over estimating frankie.
